THE FEED
by Heart of West Michigan United Way (Heart of West M...) on Thursday Mar 3rd, 2011 05:08pm in NONPROFITS 
Each week the Volunteer Center highlights a compelling skills-based volunteer (SBV) opportunity found on our Volunteer Solutions website. This week's SBV opportunity comes from The Kent County Tax Credit Coalition .
A volunteer proficient in sign language interpretation is needed this tax season to help increase accessibility to the Kent County Tax Credit Coalition's free tax filing service. This volunteer shift takes place on the evening of April 4th and will last about four hours. Sharing your skills could help bring in over $5,000 in Earned Income Tax Credits and refunds for a low-income family.
With an average reported income of $14,324, KCTCC clients can use these tax refunds for basic necessities such as food and clothing, home and car repairs, or medical treatment.
If you are interested in this important opportunity, please contact Brenda Brame at (616)-752-8647.
As a long-time community leader, Heart of West Michigan United Way collaborates with other organizations throughout West Michigan to advance the common good - that is, to direct change and create opportunities for a good life for all who live here. We focus our efforts in three critical areas: education, income and health, which are the building blocks to a successful life. A quality education that leads to a stable job, enough to support a family through retirement, with good health at every stage. Our goal is to work toward long-lasting changes that truly make an impact. So while we support those who have fallen on hard times, we also work to identify the root causes of problems. Then we build preventative systems that keep those problems from happening in the first place.
